The 12 single was a dynamic and increasingly essential part of the release schedule as the decade progressed. Incorporating extended (sometimes full album) versions, remixes, and re-inventions they not only gave the dancefloor a longer version, and the listener an alternative take, but also highlighted the artistry of the producer bringing together all kinds of elements to create new soundscapes woven together with the original track, either vocal or instrumental. Across 4 CDs, 46 extended, full-length, or remixed versions reflect a year of seismic change in the Pop Charts and on the dancefloor for the 12 single previously dominant genre, Disco, now shared the space with remixes that embraced Pure Pop, New Wave, Electro, and Synth-driven New Romantic hits that shone light on the new post-Disco club scene.
